Minutes from the Baseball Hall of Fame and nestled in the heart of Cooperstown's Glimmerglass region, 533 Glimmerglen Road is a rare find: a 1999-built Cape Cod on 1.79 acres with the curb appeal of a boutique country estate and the flexibility to serve as a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or high-performing short-term rental in one of upstate New York's strongest tourism markets.
Cooperstown draws hundreds of thousands of visitors annually to the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Ommegang Brewery, Glimmerglass Opera, Fenimore Art Museum, The Farmers' Museum, and Otsego Lake. Quality rental inventory in this radius is consistently tight, and properties with this kind of presentation rarely come available.
Inside, the layout rewards flexibility. A primary suite and second bedroom on the main floor provide true single-level living, while the second floor opens additional space for family or guests. Three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms offer comfortable capacity for a household or turnover-ready guest accommodations. The country kitchen and formal dining room feature solid surface counters and gas appliances, designed for real use.
Outside, ornamental gardens, flowering beds, and manicured shrubberies create a lush, curated setting that elevates the entire property. The patio and porch invite you to settle into the Otsego County countryside. For hobbyists, craftsmen, or collectors, this property stands alone: two heated, detached two-car garages with dedicated shop space provide a total of four bays for vehicles, tools, and projects.
Two miles to the Otesaga Golf Course. Three miles to the historic Otesaga Hotel. Eight miles to the renowned Glimmerglass Theater. Offered as-is, this is a solid foundation with serious long-term upside in a market that continues to reward well-positioned properties. Your Cooperstown chapter starts here.
